    Very nice figures! I will certainly use them as models for my own (1/72) ACW infantry :)

First bases of Early Medieval Russian army

Image
Today I want to show you two new dba-style bases of Early Medieval Russians (or any VIII - XI century Slavic army for that matter), with a bit of a twist. The figures come from Strelets Russian Peasant Levy in Winter Dress set . On closer inspection there is nothing particularly "eastern" about these figures (I could easily see those mixed in a Viking or an Anglo-Saxon force) and some of them are quite well equipped for a "peasant levy" (most wear a nice helmet and a shield, and some come equipped with a gambeson and even a sword!). Thankfully there are a few basic peasants armed with agricultural tools and lumberjack axes in the set too. I painted a base of each style, so one base of light infantry with shields and one handed weapons and one base of armed peasants with improvised weapons. As always, they are based on 60mm wide bases an per DBA, but still Lion Rampant remains my ruleset of choice. There are multiple ways you could field this two units in LR, but I...

Stanley in Africa

Image
I'm back after some radio silence with more 1/72 scale plastics. I also decided to start a new blog, as the old one is a bit of a mess.  With the new blog I want to focus on late XIX century (roughly 1865-1900 period), but I might (and probably will ☺) jump to Napoleonics and other periods. With this post I want to present to you a conversion based on an figure found in HaT 8268 Askari set, with some parts from Italeri 6050 Zulu Wars British Infantry set, depicting the legendary explorer Henry Morton Stanley .  Above was roughly inspired by below photograph: Stanley 1872, Smithsonian Libraries and Archives, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons       Unfortunately, I could not find a suitable figure for Stanley's adopted son Kalulu , so I painted one of Hat 8269 Ruga-Ruga figures instead.   Thanks for reading!

Caesar Assyrian Chariots

Image
Good morning everyone! I've painted a box of Assyrian chariots from Caesar. Nice little models and figures (as always from Caesar). It surprised me how easy they were to put together, especially considering Caesar's soft plastic. I had lots of fun painting all the bright colours and bronze metallics. You might expect more ancients from me in the near future. Enjoy the photos! Edit: I took some additional photos.
